hands problem
Hi all.
I have an intermittent problem which is destroying my game when it arises. I t is all relevant to my hands and the takeaway. I normally take away the club square on the line with an emphasis on a square clubface up, down and through. Allthough I do break my wrists, I do not allow the back of my left hand to change direction. When I am striking the balll well I really do have a swing as close to perfection as I would like. When things go wrong, I tend to focus on my hands being the problem in relation to position, i.e. should I have a more straight back on my left hand at the top of the backswing and try to release my hands through the ball at impact. I have also played around with lying the clubface on adress so as the angle of the loft is in a natural position. Then I focus on trying to take the club away so as the club head is dead straight at the top and pointing to my target. I dont have a weak or strong grip, I have excellent set up, can drive the ball approx 270yds mostly straight, and my puttingis good. But I know that my weakness is to do with my irons and the failure to root out this problem. I know if I could get a solution to this problem I would not be far away from single figure handicap. I currently play off 15 but through the season I could shoot up to 18 due to this inconsistency. I would really appreciate some feedback and would be interested to know if anyone else has a similar problem to me.
Many thanks
